Rötkreuz

Highlight • Viewpoint

Once you have reached the simple cross on a rock coming from the Ahrntal, the terrain finally flattens out and you can soon see the Rötspitze appearing in front of you.

After an interesting and historical ascent you reach the Rötalm. There we experienced a warm and funny hospitality. The senior has a dry sense of humor 👍.

A great hut with a friendly host and staff. The overnight stay was also stress-free and the dinner and breakfast were very good. Great view.

Altimeter not calibrated. Lenkjochhütte is 2600 meters away. Rötalmhütte is more atmospheric and comes as called after the tough climb along the mine shafts

The start of our hike today 🥾 🥾 was the hiking bus terminus 🚏 in the Ahrntal Valley. Past the small chapel ⛪️, we climbed steadily ↗️ through diverse mountain landscapes🏔️. Cows 🐄 and marmots 🦫 included. After almost 9 km of strenuous 😅 ascent, we reached the Lenkjöchelhütte 🛖 at 2603 m 💪🏻 with the award-winning 🏆 Hut Warden …

A really beautiful and varied hike. And the delicious cuisine on the Lenkjöchl must be enjoyed. On the descent, you can still take interesting culture with you in the mining museum.

It's been 4 years since I was a dairymaid on the Rötalm for a summer. The Rötalm is a rustic alpine pasture with 1950s charm, which, thanks to its dairy cows, delights hikers passing by on the popular hiking tour with young gray cheese, butter and delicious buttermilk as well as other alpine dishes. There is no road, so bread …

Lenkjöchelhütte
Great tour start at the mine and very steep up through the Rottal (we preferred that to the steep back)
A beautiful high valley awaited us at the top, but the Rotalm is currently closed, at the top of the Lenkjöchelhütte we strengthened ourselves for the beautiful Windtal that leads continuously downwards

Today a wonderful ride..
The refuge is still closed, so few people in both directions.
Get a good sunscreen because it's all out in the open.
We went slowly and took several breaks because the landscape is worth it..

Used the guest card today and took the bus to Prettau. From there in a steep uphill past old mining tunnels to the Rötalm. Very simple but beautiful Alm. Through the Röttal with a view of the Röttalspitze, it went, what else, again steeply uphill to the Lenkjöchelhütte at 2600m. After a good meal, a long descent through the Windtal …
